Hopefully for the upcoming version their File Reputation must be likely full blown, no pop ups to determine about the file being used by least users.

Same with me, Been using Avast since 09 when I decided to get rid of my McAfee that i had been using since I first started using the internet. Let to many infections through. Anyways, I also agree that Malc0de does have some Non-Malicious links and MDL has to many broken Links. Hard to find a good malware source. MBAM is a great source but you need to be a memeber of their MH Group to download the samples. MT has good samples too, but not a lot.

Primarily Polish site but has frequent samples available in their 'Malware Lab' forum, which are very useful :)
